International Programs to Combat Trafficking in Persons
The Department of States Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons (G/TIP) is requesting proposals for projects that will improve the response to trafficking in persons outside of the United States.
U.S.-based non-profit/non-governmental organizations (NGO), public international organizations
(PIO), foreign NGOs, and universities are encouraged to submit proposals for anti-trafficking programs to be conducted in a single country abroad, within a region, or in more than one region.
G/TIP anticipates having approximately $17 million available to award multiple grants of up to $500,000 per project.
Given the limited funding available, G/TIP has identified 44 priority countries for this solicitation; proposals that are designed to address human trafficking issues in these countries are especially encouraged.
Applicants are urged to review the country-specific recommendations listed in the country narratives of the 2008 Trafficking in Persons (TIP) Report as guidance for anti-trafficking programming under this announcement.
G/TIP recognizes the important role of civil society leadership in combating human trafficking and thus encourages partnerships between U.S.-based NGOs and local NGOs abroad that have a significant role in improving the response to this crime.
G/TIP expects to fund bilateral projects that focus on anti-trafficking programming in one country as well as a limited number of projects that address regional trafficking problems or aspects of trafficking that are more global in nature.
